Article summary: 

Dandrawy Al-Hawary asks why Copts are ignoring the Pope's ban on demonstrations inside Churches. Some say that he may be losing power, while others claim that his apparent weakness is actually a tactic to achieve certain political goals. Secular Copts question why Copts are allowed to perform demonstrations inside churches even though demonstrations inside places of worship are prohibited under Egyptian law. They ask if this means that Copts in Egypt are above the law.

Key Words: Pope Shenouda III - Kamilia Shehata - Ismailia - Mariana Zaki - Nabeel Louka Babawy
